Interesting

Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.

Faith whereas many have presumption about what God will do for them. We take out installment loans so we can trust God on the installment plan.

Proverbs 10:22
The blessing of the Lord makes rich,
and he adds no sorrow with it.

The riches that comes from God brings no sorrow or trouble with it.

I Timothy 6:9-10, 17
But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.
As for the rich in this present age, charge them not to be haughty, nor to set their hopes on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy.

Genesis 3:19
By the sweat of your face
you shall eat bread,
till you return to the ground,
for out of it you were taken;
for you are dust,
and to dust you shall return.

Work is not a dirty word. We are created to work to our food.
